As everyone thinks, after the emergence of the whistleblowing policy, the entire Datang territory was really lively for a while.

Because there are a lot of cases that have suddenly emerged in various places, and among them, although some are insignificant and small, some big fish have really been caught.

In the beginning, it was true that there were people who wanted to fish in troubled waters and reap the benefits. But after a few severe punishments, everyone's enthusiasm slowly calmed down. When the system begins to improve and the prevention becomes stricter, it is rare for everyone to report each other.

Of course, at this time, what we need to guard against is that the situation goes to the other extreme, that is, hello, hello, everyone, and in the end, no one will report anyone's situation. Therefore, the act of covering up crimes must also be severely punished.

In short, after this new set of policies is carried out, it has indeed achieved the results it deserves. The entire Datang border has become a lot more peaceful because of this, especially the profiteers who have emerged in the market over the years, after this wave of blows, they have disappeared.

It's like a mirror covered with fog, which originally became a little blurry, but after wiping the fog away, the mirror becomes much brighter.

After the policy adjustment, Datang's state affairs have become orderly, and relatively speaking, Li Xin's burden has become much lighter.

Normally, he would go to the barracks, or walk between Shiqu Pavilion and Tianlu Pavilion, flip through the books, and get a closer look at everything in this era.

After all, although I have read history books in the past, it is a paper article after all, and the people who write the books are too far away from reality, let alone the people who read them.

The time slowly came to October, and everything was fine in Datang, but in Liangzhou, which was adjacent to it, there was civil strife again at this time.

Zhang Yong, who originally gave the Song family a few months ago, followed in Song Cheng's footsteps this time, and was killed in the mutiny, and even his family was wiped out. Instead, it was Zhang Tianxi, the uncle of Zhang Xuanliang, who had previously held power in Liangzhou with him.

Previously, Song Cheng was killed, Zhang Yong was appointed by Zhang Xuanliang as the general of the Central Protector Army, and Zhang Tianxi was the general of the Central Army. The two of them are in charge of the entire Liangzhou, although on the surface it seems that Zhang Xuanliang is the lord of Liangzhou, but in fact he is just a puppet.

But Zhang Yong is arrogant and conceited, indulges ~***, snares the party, specializes in government affairs, abuses punishment and killing, and the people resented him. So Zhang Tianxi and his cronies Liu Su and others secretly plotted to eradicate Zhang Yong.

Just a few days ago, Zhang Tianxi and Liu Su entered the court together, and finally killed Zhang Yong in one fell swoop in the palace. In this regard, the entire Liangzhou has experienced three turmoil ~ chaos within a year. I have to say, it's really able to toss.

Because he knew Li Xin's thoughts earlier, Tu Qi did not propose to send troops to attack Liangzhou this time like last time. It just so happened that at this time, Peng Lin's side finally sent someone back to report the news, and the war on their side was going well.

Because they fed the enemy and replenished themselves by seizing the enemy's cattle, sheep and horses, the movement of the army was not affected in any way. In the past few months, they have eliminated a large number of living forces of the country.

As a result, the strength of today's Daiguo is declining more and more, and another consequence caused by it is that the war against Gaoche and Rouran and other clans has also begun to become unsmooth.

Originally, in terms of Shi Yiqian's ability, there was no big problem in dealing with these rebellions.

But now that the Tang Army is running around in the hinterland, everything will naturally become different. Although in order to solve the problem of the Tang army, Shi Yiqian also designed several times to encircle and annihilate Peng Lin and them.

However, the soldiers and horses under his command were not the opponents of the Tang army at all, and Peng Lin was also very cautious in using his troops and was not too greedy. Therefore, Shi Yiqian has not been able to achieve his wish. Seeing that Saibei has entered the winter, it is becoming more and more difficult for Daiguo.

In other places, there are basically no major incidents. Especially in the border areas, Yan Guo has been quiet since the peace, and he has tried to avoid disputes with the Tang army. In this way, the entire Datang is basically peaceful inside and outside, and Li Xin is much more relieved.

Taking advantage of such a time, Li Xin decided to go out of the Middle East to inspect the important city of Luoyang. The reason why there is such an idea is because the geographical location of Luoyang is very important.

In ancient times, Luoyang was called the middle of the world, which means that this place is located in the middle of the entire territory. If that's the case, then the distance from here to the borders of the four realms is about the same.

For ancient times, when the traffic was inconvenient, if such a place was used as the capital, it was naturally of self-evident significance for controlling the entire world.

However, compared with Guanzhong, Luoyang lacks a barrier. Once the world is in turmoil, this is a place of contention, and there is a lack of barriers to rely on. From this point of view, the geographical location of Guanzhong is much better than it.

Therefore, Li Xin did not say that he wanted to move the capital, and he went to inspect it, just because this place will inevitably play an important role in the future development of the Tang Dynasty.

These areas around Luoyang are now basically in their own hands. But the border with Yan and Jiangzuo is actually not far away. Such a place can be regarded as a frontier place, and it is certainly worth paying attention to.

Luoyang has been an important place since ancient times, but when it really gets long-term development, it should be after Luoyang, the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty. After all, as the capital of a great unified dynasty for many years, it has been built a lot, and it was once the most prosperous and wealthy place in the world.

Of course, that's all in the past. Today's Luoyang City, whether it is the city or the facilities inside, has long been riddled with holes and fragments in the midst of major wars.

Because after the fall of Later Zhao, Luoyang City has been circulating among various forces, so that no one has time to completely repair it.

And this time, after Datang took this place, if you calculate the time, it will be more than a year. A lot of repairs have been made, big and small, and although it has not been completely restored to its old appearance, it is at least much better than when it was first taken down.

Because of the importance of this place, Luoyang City is now the military and administrative center of the Tang Army in Kwantung Province. The officials of the entire Henan County, Hongnong and Shangluo County, once there is anything, they are all here to discuss.

Not to mention Zhao Ji and other generals, except for Xingyang and other places in the east, Zhao Ji and Chen Kang usually take turns to sit in Luoyang City, responsible for guarding all the boundaries of the Tang Dynasty in the eastern part of the Kanto.

After Li Xin arrived in Luoyang, he walked around the city accompanied by officials and generals.

"After all, it is a thousand-year-old city, the land of the imperial capital in ancient times, even if it is damaged like this, this majestic momentum is not comparable to ordinary places." After taking a turn above the city, Li Xin couldn't help but sigh.

Calculated carefully, starting from the Xia Dynasty, the first dynasty in China, there were Shang, Western Zhou, Eastern Zhou, Eastern Han, Cao Wei, and Western Jin Dynasty to set their capitals here.

Although none of these dynasties is comparable to the later Qin and Han dynasties, it is the history of the evolution of Chinese civilization. Therefore, the humanistic atmosphere of Luoyang is also very strong.

"If you want to talk about its grandeur, in fact, Chang'an City is better than here! Especially after our continuous repairs over the years, Chang'an City has almost recovered. Perhaps it will not be long before the scene of the Qin and Han dynasties can be reproduced! Zhao Ji said on the side.

As the capital of the two powerful dynasties of Qin and Han, Chang'an naturally has a different atmosphere. It's not just about the scale, it's also about the momentum that comes with it. After all, whether it is Qin Shi Huang or Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, these two emperors are not ordinary kings who can compare.

Their kind of courage to look at the world is already deeply implicated in Chang'an City, but this thing happens to be something that Luoyang City does not have. After all, these dynasties in Luoyang Dingdu are actually not as strong as the Qin Dynasty and the Western Han Dynasty.

"Despite this, this place is also an important town in the world, and the importance of this place is self-evident to us! If you control this place, you can go everywhere in the world, especially for us today, it is equivalent to mastering the key to all parts of the world! Li Xin looked around at the surrounding scene and said lightly.

"It is precisely because of this that the two sides of Yan and Jin will fight back and forth in this place and argue. However, now this place belongs to our Datang, and whoever wants to take it away will not let it succeed! ”

"You've already heard about the king's decision to expand the army, right? What do you think? How many soldiers and horses do you need to defend here? Li Xin turned his head to look at him and asked.

"If it is according to His Highness's thoughts, our troops can be greatly relieved. As far as the Luoyang area alone is concerned, under the current circumstances, there are 50,000 troops enough to defend all parts of the country. But in the long run, I'm afraid it will take 100,000 troops! Zhao Ji thought about it for a moment before replying.

What he meant was that 50,000 troops were more than enough to guard the territory in Luoyang alone. Unless the Yan and Jin sides plan to act against the Tang Army together, otherwise, it is completely enough to defend the land.

In the long run, it is obvious that the future war will unfold, and it will inevitably become an important place to send troops. At that time, no matter which side of Yan Jin was attacked, it was obvious that 50,000 troops were not enough.

"Before February next year, the 50,000 troops will be replenished in place, and you and Chen Kang will give me a good defense here!" Li Xin bowed his head slightly and said directly.
